Pretty darn good [Posted on 2003-02-13] This game isn't what I would call the best in the whole world, but, like the above title, it's pretty darn good! The cool-named cars are awesome and more advanced than the ones in the other Lego Racers games, and the graphics are very nice. This game can be a little confusing at first, but in time you'll get it. So in other words, this game is very fun and fast-paced, so I recommend that you should buy it!
The most detailed game I own! [Posted on 2003-11-14] If you want a game with your favorite lego technic vehicles, awesome race/battles, and most of all, incredible realism, then this is the game for you! This game offers 3 different modes of play: Quick Race-Random Track and Vehicle Arcade-Chose your track and Vehicle Career-Work through the Multi-Challenge Races to win the Drome Racers cup! There are also 3 different types of terrain and vehicles: -Street -Off-Road -Drag Race A street race normally takes place in a big city. In a street race, the cars have thin racing slicks and are faster than the off-roaders. An off-road race takes place on a dirt track. Off-road races have "hazards" such as tornado, lava, falling boulders, etc. The cars have thicker tires and are the slowest of all. The drag race stage is much different. The cars are automatically manual transmission, so you don't just hold down the accelerator the whole way down the long strip of pavement. Be careful! If your rpm's get to high, your engine will blow. So, once again, if you like extremely detailed lego racing, buy this game!
great game! [Posted on 2006-06-17] This is a great game! Very entertaining and fun. We initially got it for my brother's birthday, but my dad and other siblings quickly took it over from day one. The many tracks are beutifully rendered, and many have hidden dangers, such as tornados (extremely hard to escape if you run into one), mudslides, falling rocks and archways, lava, hidden tunnels, rivers to jump, and more. In the PC version of the game, two people can race at once, and in the PS and gamecube versions, you can have more racers.
The music isn't annoying or obnoxious, unlike many other racing games out there. (In fact, I have a ripped version I like to listen to while working) It has a good storyline and several good characters (each with their own quirks). None of the cars behave the same as a real car or even like the ones in other games.
Each race (in 'career' mode) is made of several races, and all tracks have several routes that run through them, increasing the variety of races you can do. Plus, while in 'arcade' mode, you can control the weather and time of day a race takes place. It isn't any more violent than other racing games (you can pick up and use mines, missiles, disrupture fields and other things to do damage to the cars of other racers, and they do the same to you.). The female mechanic has part of her stomach bared, but hey, it's hard to find games without.
Overall, this is a terrific (and rather addicting) racing game good for the whole family.
